Chapter 1395 May the Stars Guide Your Path (Part 1)

Rolin Empire, Tuli.

Click, click, click...

The sound of military boots stepping on the ground and the friction of armor continuously entered Barrister's ears.

Barrister was standing in the crowd on the side of the street at this time, silently looking at the Rolin soldiers who were lined up in three columns and marching forward along the center of the avenue.

The last Rolin army - set out today.

The troops stationed in Tuli City will leave Tuli, meet with other troops stationed in the surrounding areas, and then go north to fight a decisive battle with the Britannian army.

Many citizens of Tuli stood on both sides of the street, watching the soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield.

Although many people looked gloomy, their eyes were dull, and they looked at the soldiers in the middle of the street numbly, like zombies.

But there were also many people shouting and cheering for these young men who were about to fight a decisive battle with the Britannians.

Some soldiers were excited about these cheers and shouts.

However, more soldiers were indifferent.

Barrister carefully discovered that those soldiers who were excited by the cheers of the citizens were basically young people with childish faces.

And those who were indifferent to the cheers of the citizens were basically veterans with a certain military service.

——The recruits don’t know at all...

Barrister said in his heart.

——What a terrible and cruel battlefield they will go to...

Some citizens were expressionless, and they didn’t seem to care at all whether the Rolin Army could successfully repel the Britannia Army.

Some citizens were in high spirits and cheered for the generals and soldiers at the loudest volume they could.

The veterans knew what kind of battle they would participate in next, so they looked indifferent and looked like they were not excited about anything.

The recruits didn’t know the taste of blood and fire, and they still had naive fantasies about the so-called battlefield, and looked eager to try.

The farewell to the Tuli garrison was carried out in such a strange scene and in such a strange atmosphere.

…

…

Barrister did not shout loudly to cheer.

He did not look at the soldiers who were about to go to the battlefield with numb and indifferent eyes.

Instead, he whispered in a volume that only he could hear clearly:

"Come on... I... and he... have completed our mission, and now it's up to you..."

After whispering like this, Barrister took out a gorgeous and exquisite pocket watch from his pocket.

This pocket watch was one of the three things that Roche stuffed into his arms when he risked his life to help him escape - Roche's pocket watch.

Looking at Roche's pocket watch in his hand, Barrister's thoughts gradually returned to yesterday...

…

…

Yesterday -

Rolin Empire, Tuli, Duke Valoya's mansion -

Barrister didn't know where he was in this luxurious mansion now.

He only knew that an envoy from the Duke of Valois suddenly came to visit him and asked him to go to the Duke of Valois's mansion. The Duke of Valois wanted to talk to him about something.

Barrister originally wanted to refuse this inexplicable request.

But after learning from the envoy what the Duke of Valois wanted to talk to him about, Barrister changed his mind.

His Excellency the Duke wants to talk to you about his eldest son, His Excellency Roger de Sanchez - these were the original words of the envoy. 2k

It was because of this sentence from the envoy that Barrister changed his mind and decided to meet the Duke of Valois.

After being led into the Duke of Valois's mansion in Tuli, Barrister was directly led to this room that was decorated rather luxuriously.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw an old man who had been waiting for him for an unknown period of time.

The old man's hair and beard were mostly white.

His face was also covered with fine or deep wrinkles.

After seeing Barrister coming in, the old man immediately stood up and saluted Barrister very beautifully:

"Sir Barrister, welcome to you, I am Jourdan. Jourdan de Sanchez."

Barrister didn't know what the etiquette of the nobles was like, so he naturally didn't know how to perform their noble etiquette, so Barrister just returned the salute to Jourdan with the only etiquette he knew - the salute of the Rolin Army.

"I have heard a lot about you, Sir Jourdan."

Jourdan respectfully invited Barrister to take a seat.

After sitting down, Barrister took out a silver-white square object from his trouser pocket.

This is Roger's ID card.

"This is... the ID card of Sir Roger de Sanchez."

As Barrister spoke, he handed the ID card in his hand to Jourdan with both hands.

Jourdan took Roger's ID card from Barrister's hand.

After receiving Roger's ID card, the light in his eyes flickered slightly...

His fingers, like dead branches, carefully stroked the ID card in his hand, which was not even the size of a palm.

If he only looked at the action, Barrister might have mistaken Jourdan for stroking a child's hair...

"...This thing is also...a relic of Mr. Roger de Sanchez."

Barrister took out a new thing from his trouser pocket - a pocket watch.

"This is what Roger gave me when I said goodbye..."

"Now, let the property return to its original owner."

After that, Barrister held the pocket watch respectfully with both hands as if holding some precious treasure, and then handed it to Jourdan.

Looking at the pocket watch lying quietly in Barrister's palm, a look of surprise flashed across Jourdan's face.

After a moment of silence, he said softly:

"...You should keep this pocket watch."

"ah?"

Just when Barrister was confused about the situation and why Jourdan wanted to leave his son's belongings to him, Jourdan seemed to have seen through Barrist's doubts and said softly:

"This pocket watch... is Luo Xie's favorite watch."

"Keep it with you at all times."

"Others want to play with it, but Luo Xie won't give it to them."

"Since Luo Xie, who values ​​this watch so much, would give this watch to you, it shows how important you are to him."

"Since Luo Xie gave this watch to you, I also respect his choice. Mr. Barrister, you can just keep this watch for yourself. There is no need to return it to me."

After listening to Jourdan's words quietly, Barrist quietly took back the pocket watch.

Looking at the pocket watch in his palm, a smile filled with helplessness and... other emotions appeared on Barrist's face.

"Is there an important person..."

Barrister said softly.

"What a strange guy... We obviously just met each other not long ago, and the process of our acquaintance was so awkward and speechless..."
